What it means
Says the subject undergoes something: it is hit, squeezed, favoured or eagerly sought after. Business and news writing pairs 受（到） with a set of abstract nouns.
How it is built
Subject + 受（到）+ (…的) + noun (冲击／挤压／青睐／追捧／关注／质疑): 小商店普遍受到冲击 (Small shops have been hit across the board). Written intensifiers: 深受喜爱, 备受关注, 饱受批评, 广受好评.
When to use it
受到 suits good and bad alike; 遭到 (3-11) is only for bad things (遭到批评). For help or support that you gain, 得到 is usual. 很受 also works: 很受年轻人青睐.
Watch out
受 is passive already, so never add 被: ✗被受到冲击。 ✓受到冲击。 And do not use 遭到 for something good: ✗遭到欢迎 ✓受到欢迎.
